Dessert without any added sugar &  flour.

I know what you’re thinking.

But wait. Because these little dessert bites actually taste great, despite all of those things missing.

And in the season of endless sugar and flour treats that can wreck havoc on your body inside and out, why not give your body a little treat that you can enjoy but one that wont throw you off track the next few days?

I’m not trying to take out the fun.

Just the guilt.

The ingredients?  Dates, coconut, vanilla extract, sea salt and dark chocolate chips.

SIMPLE.

And PERFECT.

Ingredients:

1 cup pitted dates

2 TB unsweetened coconut flakes

1 tsp vanilla

1 tsp sea salt

1 TB dark chocolate chips

Directions:

Combine all ingredients in a blender with a bit of water. Form into balls and place on wax paper or in mini muffin tins with lining. Sprinkle with extra coconut and a slight sprinkle of sea salt.

I usually double the batch and keep in the freezer, but they don’t last long. You’ve been warned. For variation, try adding chopped nuts, or peanut/almond butter.
